- Trump said if he were elected, he would stop sending California federal firefighting aid unless Gov. Gavin Newsom enacted his policies.
- The president of the California Professional Firefighters union blasted the remarks as ‘shocking.’
The president of the California Professional Firefighters union said this weekend that former President Trump “should be ashamed” of his threat to withhold federal firefighting aid to the state if he were elected.
Brian K. Rice, president of the California Professional Firefighters union, which represents more than 35,000 firefighters, said in a statement Saturday evening that it “is shocking that we have a presidential candidate who is threatening our public safety.”
“His rhetoric is dangerous, his ideas on public safety are dangerous, and his ignorant rhetoric has grown exponentially,” Rice said.
Right, so as US citizens it is imperative that we never put him in a position of power over any other person, ever. That’s step one. Step two is to convict him and punish him for all the crimes he has committed.
